interesting to compare two manganese companies.
similar in many ways. Operating margin, divi yield and market capitalisation differ considerably.
Interesting to look at the charts and compare them too. OMH looks like it is on the way up and CSM on the way down.
I know which one I would prefer.


OMH CSM
pe 9.42 9.38
ROC 28 26
ROE 26.8 26.6
operating 6.7% 42%
margin
p/b 2.91 2.93
div 1.6% 6.8%

market $170 m $610 m
cap.

CSM must be close to the bottom now. A 15% discount of 06 earnings (.339) is about .294
with that in mind using a PE of 9.42 the price could go to $2.77
(9.42 x .29)
